    The fighters would hate it more than promoters.

    The best thing for boxing fans in America would be if Dana White took over. It's incredible the "small" purses his fighters get (officially) compared with boxers in America considering their success.
    If you had one guy or one organisation running all the chamionship fights then that would be ideal. The best thing about UFC is that you know the top guys are going to be matched against each other. They can't avoid it because they're all signed to the same guy who doesn't care who wins and who loses because he's backed both horses. The champ keeps winning and he becomes a legend and more than likely does good and increasing PPV numbers. Somebody beats him and he's an overnight sensation and immediately becomes a big name. This is what boxing is missing.

    That’s why I hope that one of the streaming sites/networks takes over and just becomes what UFC is to MMA. Then other promotions can be like Belator or ONE and still put on good fights but everyone knows where the best fighters go.
